PROFITABLE MINDSET.
If you could spend at least 4 years in the University to gain a degree that may not translate to comfortable living. Then why can't you give trading the required time and energy it deserves.
Truth be told: "trading is hard but it can give you a life that top professionals in many fields can't afford"
With the kind of life that profitable trading offers, then it's insane to think the journey will be smooth.
Keep grinding!
Keep learning!
